42: Is this for human consumption?

“Driving my beloved Maybach~ It will never get stuck~”

Li Youqian drove his Maybach out of the villa gate, feeling pleased with himself. As he passed Villa No. 7, he noticed the gate was open.

Li Youqian glanced inside curiously, then slammed on the brakes.

“Brother Zhou!”

“Hmm? Brother Li! Why are you here?”

Zhou Yushen, who was watering flowers, heard someone call him and looked up to find it was Li Youqian, whom he had met last night.

That’s right, this person was none other than Zhou Yushen, who had “helped out” Li Youqian last night. He never expected him to be his neighbor!

Indeed, this world is a giant Tomato Novel!

Li Youqian quickly parked his car by the roadside and then walked towards Zhou Yushen.

“I just moved in today, right next door to you, at Villa No. 6.”

“I never expected Brother Zhou and I to be neighbors.”

Villa No. 6? Isn’t that…

Sure enough, his guess was correct; otherwise, this villa wouldn't have changed hands.

“I also didn’t expect to be neighbors with Brother Li; this is truly too much of a coincidence.”

With his inner speculation further confirmed, the smile on Zhou Yushen’s face grew even brighter.

“Oh, by the way, Brother Zhou, I got a black card today. I’ll transfer the money to you now.”

Debt-free and light-hearted, a mere few million was nothing to Li Youqian now. It was better to quickly repay this “debt.”

“Forget the money. Consider it my housewarming gift to Brother Li.”

Zhou Yushen understood very well that he definitely couldn’t take the money.

Even if Li Youqian wasn’t that person’s descendant, the mere fact that he could buy Jiujiantang Villa from that individual was enough to make Zhou Yushen take him seriously.

As long as Li Youqian saw this watch in the future, he would remember Zhou Yushen. At that time, Zhou Yushen might even be able to help him out, so this deal was not a loss at all.

“How can that be? Brother Zhou already helped me, how could I not give you money?”

Although Li Youqian wasn't brilliant, he wasn't stupid either. If he didn't give these few million, he would owe a huge favor.

If Zhou Yushen asked him for help in the future, he wouldn’t be able to refuse.

“Brother Li, don’t be so polite. Our acquaintance is fate, and now we’ve even become neighbors, which shows our deep connection.”

“There’s an old saying in our country: ‘Distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors.’ We should interact more often in the future.”

Since Zhou Yushen had said so much, Li Youqian felt awkward refusing any further.

However, it was impossible for him to accept the watch with a clear conscience.

“Since Brother Zhou has said so, then I won’t be so pretentious anymore.”

“However, courtesy demands reciprocity. To give and not receive is uncivil.”

“I bought a yacht some time ago. It will arrive at the dock in a couple of days. Once the boat arrives, how about I invite Brother Zhou to go sailing?”

For a young master from the local Magic City like Zhou Yushen, a yacht was as common as a car, but Zhou Yushen still smiled and agreed.

This was Li Youqian’s first invitation to him. If he didn’t go, the two of them wouldn’t be able to get too close in the future.

“Sounds good! It’s been a while since I’ve been out to sea. I’ve been too tired lately, so it’ll be good to relax on the water.”

“When the time comes, I’ll bring a few beauties along, and we brothers can have some fun.”

Beauties??

Cough, cough, is he, Li, that kind of lustful person??

Remember to make them wear bikinis!!

Hehe~ Sunshine, the sea, bikinis, the deck—it’s simply paradise.

“Alright, Brother Zhou can arrange it. Anyway, my yacht is big enough; it can hold not just a few people, but hundreds.”

It would be best to bring a few more beauties. If they could learn foreign languages, that would be even better!

“No problem, no problem.”

“In that case, Brother Zhou, it’s settled. I’ll notify you in advance when the time comes.”

“I won’t bother you too much; I still need to go to the maritime department to handle the procedures.”

This conversation was too deep. Li Youqian was worried that if they continued talking, this chapter would end, so he quickly bid farewell.

“Alright, then Brother Li, you go ahead and be busy. I won’t see you out.”

After saying goodbye to Zhou Yushen, Li Youqian drove to the maritime department.

Since the yacht had already been launched, the procedures were handled very quickly, basically a green light all the way.

“Mr. Li, your procedures have been completed. You just need to report to the relevant department before the yacht goes out to sea.”

“Alright, thank you for your trouble.”

It was already noon when he left the maritime department. Li Youqian found a high-end Western restaurant on the map to have lunch.

As for why he chose Western food?

Now that he had money, shouldn't he eat some things he hadn’t eaten before??

Louis Jinsha Restaurant is a famous Western restaurant in Magic City, known for its high prices and luxurious atmosphere. The people who dine here are all so-called “important figures.”

“No wonder foreigners know how to enjoy themselves; they even have an orchestra accompanying their meal.”

After Li Youqian was seated, he looked at the orchestra in the center of the restaurant, marveling.

“Cheers!”

“Please give me the five-meter menu.”

His broken English made the surrounding diners turn their heads.

It wasn’t that Li Youqian didn’t want to speak Chinese, but ever since he came in, he hadn’t heard any Chinese; everyone was communicating in English.

“Uh… Hello, sir, you can speak Chinese here.”

The waiter’s mouth twitched slightly, but he still tried to maintain a smile.

“Oh, you should’ve said so earlier! I almost held it in until I pooped.”

Hearing that he could speak Chinese, Li Youqian immediately switched back to his familiar Lu Province dialect.

What the hell is foreign language? Our Chinese language is the best!

Not only is the grammar diverse, but the expression of emotions completely surpasses foreign languages.

Haven’t countless foreigners been driven crazy by our language?

When he was in the orphanage, the director was from Lu Province, so he unconsciously picked up the Shandong accent.

“Uh… Sir, if possible, please speak Mandarin.”

“I can’t quite understand your dialect.”

Where the hell did this rustic…

Tycoon!!!!

Seeing the six hundred yuan tip Li Youqian handed over, the waiter immediately changed his tune.

“Actually, dialect is quite good; it feels friendly, just like treating family.”

My quick-changing brother~

“Give me a foie gras, and this caviar, then an Australian lobster, a bottle of ’82 Lafite.”

“Finally, a portion of pasta.”

Since he was going to eat, he had to try all the famous dishes.

Let’s see which is better, Western food or Chinese food?

As for the ’82 Lafite, he didn’t know if there was any stock left after so many years…

After all, in TV shows and movies, they would just casually open a case, so it’s hard to say if there’s any left.

“Alright, sir, please wait a moment.”

The waiter bowed slightly and retreated. Although this customer was very… nouveau riche, he was genuinely rich!

After waiting for an hour, just as Li Youqian was about to curse, the dishes finally arrived.

Li Youqian took a bite of the foie gras and almost threw up.

What the hell is this?! Are you sure this thing is cooked??

He took another bite of caviar. Ugh~

It was fishy and salty, completely incomparable to their Wujiang Zha Cai!

Only the Australian lobster was barely edible. As for the pasta, it tasted like chewing wax.

What kind of hell do Westerners live in?

Is this even food for humans??

Forget it, I’ll just pack it up and take it back for Lin Yuwei to eat.

Our domestic food is still the best: cheap, good value, and delicious.
